Azad Jammu and Kashmir Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider Khan Friday announced special quota for victims of LoC firing in different government departments.
He was addressing victims of Indian firing near Line of Control (LoC) at Chari Kot Sector while visiting the area here. He said that inheritors of civilian martyrs of LoC firing would be accommodated in government institutions on priority basis under special quota.
He said the compensation for inheritors of martyrs and injured would also be increased and victims of LoC firing would be paid an amount for the construction of concrete bunkers for their safety.
The AJK premier said the Indian forces were deliberately targeting civilian population to push them back and weaken the position of Pak Army at LoC but our brave civilians proved themselves the iron curtain for Pak Army and foiled the nefarious designs of aggressor forces of India.
Some four million people of AJK were the defense wall for Pakistan and would fight shoulder-to-shoulder with Pak Army if India made any misadventure, he warned.
He said that quality highways were being constructed in 13 constituencies near LoC to facilitate the people.
